Hometown Holidays: It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
Yesterday was Thanksgiving - today is Christmas! The turkey is barely cold and Naperville is already onto its next festival, Hometown Holidays. The festival marks the start of the Christmas season. As usual, the town pulled out all the stops with a parade, carol singers,real reindeers and a visit from Santa and Mrs Claus (aka Mayor Pradel and his wife). As the parade came to an end, Santa pulled the switch and the town was transformed into a fairyland of twinkling lights.
Guest of honour was local Olympic skater Evan Lysacek
What could be better when the weather is below freezing than a visit to my favourite ice cream parlour?
Who needs a hot chocolate when you can have a frozen one?

I'm proud of you!!!!! We had the official switching on of the lights in Buckingham yesterday - attended by all of about 6 people. Shame on us eh?

How festive and fun! We had the lighting of the Christmas tree this evening in Fort Lauderdale. We even had the Rockettes do a little high kicking routine to the holiday sounds of the season. **I hope that you were eating a very sinful flavor icecream! :)
